Green & Co. S report on cotton futures says:
THE feyersh and undetermined character of
the market for cotton options is its principal
feature. There has been pretty good business
doing to-day, but fluctuations were only to the
extent of to points, with final rates steady at
substantially last nights figures. There APP
peared to be pretty good offerings at times, but
there was always demand to meet 1t, and this
kept the position about even and gave no side
any positive advantage, Southern advices re,
main about as before respecting the condition of
the crop and the movement of supplies. The
European tone is rather slack, about the only
new feature being report that the Liverpool
stock was considerably in excess of the running
account. One noticeable feature of the demand
was the attention given October.

CHICAGO Sept 2y.-No one had anything to
say about wheat to-day, except to surmise that
two or three prominent dealers were buying it.
Running through the ,wnoe session there was
an absence of any interesting feature. which
left the market purely local There was at
times, however, a brisk local demand and on
the whole good days business was transacted
and the feeling was rather firm. The opening
was tame, influenced some by the more quiet
tone of European adviees and reported decline
in California wheat, but there appeared to be
good buying at the dacline, which resulted in
developing a stronger tone and prices were adj
vanced ss09Sc. Shorts covered pretty freely
and there was fair buying from other sources
At the same time each up turn IN prices brought
out rather free speculative offerings, which
caused numerous fluctuations, prices receding
somewhat. Receipts al twelve points were
smaller, aggregating $4,000 bushels. Corn de-
D. M. 3AG11sc higher for near deliveries and
showing a net gain of 1sc for May. Receipts
were less than anticipatecl--253 carS-and esti-
mated arrivals for to morrow 800 cars. Lake
engagements were unusually large aggregating
$4,000 bushels. During tho early part OF tbe
session there we're signs of weakness, but at no
time were prices below the closing figures of
Yesterday. There was good demand for Sep
TENDER oats, but that option was not to be
readily had. Arrivals ara considerably smaller
than they were earlier in the week All futures
except May show an advance of nc. Provisions
received slight setback 10 day, there being too
many hogs received, which caused a de Zine in
prices. This had depressing effect on holders
and caused them To sell more freely than buyers
were disposed 10 take. A decline Of 1OGo1212c
in pork, allc in lard and 5QS719c in short ribs
ensued, from which the recovery was only par
tial except in lard and final quotations for Jan
uary, which was the fayorite speculative future
wee at exactly yesterdays close for lard, SC
lower for pork and PIC lower for short ribs
